Would electronic or online voting NOT have saved the lives? Or what is your point?



Of course it wouldn't have. None of them died from counting votes.


Aha, what are you suggesting that they died from? I'm sincerely curious and not sure what you mean


Natural causes. If they hadn't been counting votes, they'd have died doing something else. The number of people involved was high enough for a few hundred deaths to be expected: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19773386
